To select the were here Rated Sony, as well as the Tamron SP70-300 F / 4-5.6 Di USD Lens for Sony cameras. Both lenses were able to convince me, but in the end I opted for the Tamron, because it only costs 1/3 the price of the Sony.
Both are high quality, with the Sony feels better. However, this has the disadvantage that the tube extends, when I hold the camera down. Conversely retracts the Tamron, when I extended set it up. Both not too tragic for me. Both lenses make great images, the Tamron has a slight red tint and seem a bit to zoom further if I put one above the other the images of both lenses. While the Tamron had a reddish tint, which is tragic not continue with RAW photography, Sony's nose had here forward. In the end, reason and significantly low price decided. The Tamron convinces with its USD engine, which quietly does its work, and the good autofocus. Even the Sony can not accuse here. Great ultrasonic motor, which is barely audible, faster and more accurate autofocus and high-quality workmanship amchen the object to real purchase tip. He is even next to the sun visor and a bag in their absence in Tamron.
As I said, top lens, but price Leisungstechnisch has in my eyes the Tamron ahead.
